^ Thanks for that only difference is the 255/60 r19 are not marked XL as they are "Passenger" tyres...

So what would you (anybody) choose from the mid priced standard fit options below. Not all Winter tyres have the "3 Pics Mountain Snowflake" on them but these three all have it which is relevant in Austria. I have always liked Nokian tyres.

D4 is about 150Kg lighter than the D3 and although 109 tyres might appear fine to use the higher weight rated tyres are the ones that are detailed for the D3 so your insurance co could take a view on that if ever a major claim is made? Like others on here I have seen 109 rated tyres fail quickly in off road situations if that's your thing too Thumbs Up and theeeeennn......???

If I get them its going to be General Snow Grabber Plus 255/55 R19 111V XL , with Snowflake & kerbing rib. £136.

I may just keep the Pirelli Scorpions M + S on and take the chains though.... Laughing

Had a reply from COOPER TYRES:

Hello Gary

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

Unfortunately we do not make 255/60R19 Weather-master WSC in an XL or have plans to make them.
The XL may be available with a competitor brand.

Kind regards
